I don't think I've ever lost 9 lbs. in one week, and I know it wasn't just colon contents because I was on liquids before surgery and there couldn't have been anything in there! Ha ha. At least now I can have tomato juice, tomato soup, and cream soups, diluted of course. I never thought I would be so happy to have a V-8.

Congratulations Diane!!! It is amazing to watch the scale go down down down. Good luck to you as you begin this part of your journey. It is not easy by any means, but for me anyway, worth everything I went through to get here.

Thanks for the support all of you!

Elena - smokin' hot new avatar! You go girl. I wish I could make it to swapkins tomorrow but it's the boyfriend's birthday and I have a bunch of stuff to do to get ready for the party. Sigh.

Now that I've gone through this (even though it's only been about 10 days!), if anyone ever tells me that WLS is the "easy" way out, or anything similar, boy am I going to let them have it! When was the last time they went an entire month on liquids only? Probably never. Ugh. Yup - I'm still crabby. Ha ha.
